New jay and Phil pic

Are Jay and Phil trying to recreate the Arnold&Franco friendship story? Pushing Muscletech products instead of Weider's, of course.

I bet Jay has developed a good solid business approach to this comeback. This comeback can be highly lucrative if done right. Yes, the priority is to win the show but Jay has had so much time to contemplate and realize his inancial potential with walking around in a 270 lb ripped body. Sure hes made alot of money off of the body but with age and wisdom on his side he is really gonna be able to cash in with this comeback.

I don't think anyone is predicting that Jay will come in first or second, after Phil; that's just not the case. That being said, I can definitely see him take the top 5, possibly third, so I am extremely excited to follow his progress. I met him a couple of times last year and earlier this year and he is a truly humble/knowledgeable guy.

He'll return like Arnold in 1980 and take back his title.

Jay's got plenty of time, i think he'll do great at the O.

I wouldn't be surprised if Jay played top 3.

Can we?

I dont remember seeing hype about that story. Last year it was Kai vs Phil from the moment Jay announced he wont compete

I wouldn't be surprised if Jay played top 3.

Neither would I...This reminded me of the picture I made for the 2011 Mr. Olympia.

I don't really understand why the 2013 Olympia is turning into a Jay vs Heath. What about Kai?

Almost seems like people forgot how good he looked at the '12 Olympia.

Kai is a freaking unbelievable bodybuilder, and if he's in shape he really should have about as much chance to win as Jay or Phil. But (a) as people often repeat around here he may never win for political reasons, whatever that means, (b) as the only one of these three who has yet to win an O he is automatically the underdog next to the other two, (c) the last several years he's had some amazing showings but is typically less consistent that Phil or even Jay. We have a better chance, I think, of seeing Phil and Jay come in strong than Kai.

Optimally I'd love to see a close three-way battle between Kai, Phil and Jay, and there's a chance it might happen. But the more likely scenario is that the contest will really end up being between Jay and Phil. They're the two who are locked in a horserace for Olympia titles, and Kai is sort of the wildcard who will (hopefully) make things even more interesting.

Anyway that's just how I see it. I don't mean to take anything away from Kai, just trying to explain why some people may be paying less attention to him. As much as I like Phil it would be amazing if Kai came in looking so freaky that they'd have to give it to him.

I think it'd be awesome if the placings were

1-Jay
2-Kai
3-Phil

I know it may not happen, but it'd be fun

Why are people getting bent out of shape. The picture was of Phil and Jay, so it is normal to talk about those two. No one in their right mind is forgetting about Kai, in fact most people I believe think Kai has a higher chance of placing second or first than Jay does.

they both look great but we cant see who looks the better at this point as they both wearing t-shirts, good luck to them both id like to see jay go out in a blaze of glory @ the O but I cant see it.

Jay is obviously leaner than Phil right now, look at his jaw and neck, and compare to Phils fat face. He's slowly ramping up his training and doing lots of traveling yet, his best gains are yet to be had. He's going to grow into the show IMO.

But Phil is looking huge, I'd guess he's actually made some new gains this year and is going to be hard to beat.

I have to wonder if it's Jay's strategy to not go all out until the last moment. This way he avoids injury, gets that bicep conditioned and his whole body in good shape but not too beat up. Phil sees him right now as no threat. Phil is in total beast mode, feeling confident, he's got this... Jay old man you are nothing to me. So Phil slows down a little, lets up, thinks he has it, while Jay goes into the shadows and really hits it hard at the last second, blows up huge, only needs to cut a little for the show because he has stayed lean all year... who knows who could win. It might work for him.

Do you know how water weight works?

Phil looks like he has 26" guns..... Mind blown.

Phil v Jay = Arms v Width.

Uhhhhh.....Has jay ever grown into a show

[DeeBee1]

I saw this pic on FB. It's awesome

[Problematique91]

I think it's cool to see them hanging out like that before they start their individual contest preparations.

[detrimental]

Phil is killing Jay in the arms... but I'd say Jay's chest is domating Phil's equally

His chest is just as full-retard as Phil's arms in this shot
